How the New Fixed Asset Rule Can Benefit Your Credit Union

How the New Fixed Asset Rule Can Benefit Your Credit Union

We know that the recent changes to NCUA’s fixed asset rule affords federal credit unions more flexibility in acquiring and managing fixed assets. The lifting of the 5% cap on fixed assets has a more positive impact on smaller credit unions as a larger percentage of their assets are tied up in land and buildings (learn more about that in a recent Risk Watch). However, all federal credit unions can benefit from the ability to develop their properties to their full potential. [9/15/15]
